Simone Agnes Kromer, known professionally as Lady Tom, was born in 1978 in Lenzburg, Switzerland, and began working as a DJ at sixteen. Her first single, "It's A Dream", entered the German Media Control charts at Number 81 and established her presence in the DJ community. In 2000 she released the album Wildchild, followed by 2003 album Sound Of Mystery and the 2004 release Hardstyle Queen, which marked a shift toward a harder sound, with the single "Into My Mind" reaching Number 1 in the Swiss charts. Lady Tom contributed remixes to major compilations such as Energy 99 – Millennium (1999) and performed at events including Mayday, Loveparade, and Mainstation 2005, where she curated the party‑specific compilation. In 2005 she founded Acova Recordings and continued to release the Hardstyle Queen series through 2010, culminating with 10 Months (2012).
